Synopsis
THE EYE, directed by twin brothers Danny and Oxide Pang, is a Chinese/Thai horror film that focuses on Mun (Sin-je Lee), a cornea-transplant recipient who has been blind most of her life. As Mun adjusts to her newfound sight, she begins to see haunting visions of dead people. As these terrifying visions become more frequent, Mun turns to a young psychiatrist, Dr. Wah (Lawrence Chou), for help. Eventually the two track the identity of the deceased eye donor to Thailand, and there the mystery is finally brought to light. With THE EYE, the Pang brothers enter the increasingly populated subgenre of contemporary Asian horror. Drawing on the visual language of recent Japanese films such as RING and PULSE, as well as Hollywood films THE SIXTH SENSE and STIR OF ECHOES, this chilling tale implies more than it reveals, building a deep sense of dread, even from the opening credits. Although the "I-see-dead-people" plotline has been investigated numerous times, THE EYE manages to put a different lens on the idea through subtleties in the story and the charismatic performance of the radiant Sin-je Lee. Featuring scenes that will make all viewers wary of elevators, hospital recovery wards, and calligraphy, this film offers truly startling moments that will linger in the mind's eye for a long time.

5.0 out of 5 stars A truly outstanding horror film, 31 May 2007
By Lando Malak "Dok" (Sheffield, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
I will just make one thing clear before I continue, just so I don't mislead anybody into thinking that this is a gory blood and guts type of horror movie because it most certainly isn't, it is a ghost story but it has as much right to be classed as a horror film as any other type of horror film.

I have seen as many horror films as most people. I grew up with them as a child in the early 1980's and this is one of the scariest I have have ever seen, which is a huge compliment from me as most (not all of them) horror films that have been made over the last ten years at least, have been one over hyped disappointment after the other. I first saw this on channel 4 in 2006 and at the time I had never heard of it, but after seeing it once I will never forget it.

This for me along with the japanese version of The Grudge, is a modern horror film at it's most scary and most beautiful. I agree with the person below about the main character being really likeable, I genuinely cared about her. If they were to remake this in America for the trendy brigade, then I am guessing that they will have the ususal irritating teen attitude type to play the lead role. I saw a review of this film somewhere that said this was just a rip off of The Sixth Sense, all I will say about that comment is that the only thing that this has in common with that film is that the main character can see ghosts and that is where the similarity ends.

I won't go into the story as I am guessing you will already have some idea as to what it is all about. Although there are a lot of scary scenes, there a few in particular that I have listed below which I personally found the scariest, but don't worry as I am not going into too much detail so won't spoil it for you.

1) The scene in the cafe, which I found really creepy but beautifully filmed.

2) The scene on the train (look very carefully at the reflection through the windows when it goes under a tunnel as you could easily miss it). If you don't notice it then I shall be very worried.

3) The your sitting in my chair scene (you will understand what I mean when you watch it). I know it is just a saying but this scene really did almost make me jump out of my skin and made me go cold and pale, it is absolutely timed to perfection.

To cut a long story short, if you like ghost stories or horror movies in general then this is an absolute must see.

5.0 out of 5 stars Scared? Much?, 23 Jan 2006
By Mrs. E. H. Blackledge "Emily" (Hampshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am a massive fan of Asian Horror and in my humble opinion this one is by far the most scary. It really is a 'watch through the fingers' film and if you can watch the scene in the lift without batting an eyelid I take my hat off to you. Truly, truly haunting.

Definately one to watch! (with the lights on!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't look now!!!!, 2 Jan 2006
Definition of blumin' scary;
1. Feeling of fright or alarm
2. Or Japanese cult horror movie written and directed by the critically acclaimed Pang Brothers, The Eye

The Eye is the chilling story of a blind woman who is given the chance of sight by having a corneal transplant. When she starts seeing strange occurrences she realises the horrifying truth of whose eyes she is seeing the world out of. Scares come thick and fast, with little respite between, leaving you a nervous wreck. When the ‘jump off your seat’ moments come, be prepared to hold back the urge to scream like a little girl.

Scared? The Eye is both terrifying and stylishly made, I’m dying to see Hollywoods stab at re-making this Japanese classic, it’s sure to make a killing.
